The CarcC forum is back again.
It was not online for about two and a half weeks.

I missed the people here...

There are some information what happens in the last time.
Please look at Carcassonne-Forum.

Here is the link to CarcF - Aktuelles-News:
CarcassonneCentral Forum
It's starting in the middle of the page 12-14

(Sorry, the people from Asia can't look at CarcF)
-----------------------------------------
Don't be worry if we are here not online we are working all time for the community...

The latest downtime was caused by a problem updating an add-on during the June monthly maintenance. This was human error on my part. To prevent it from happening in the future, Gantry will be setting up a set of test forums where I can try things to make sure they work before doing them on the live site. I appreciate everyone's patience over the last two weeks.

Stuff happens because it's easy.

Thanks for getting it sorted - that's the hard part!!!!

I have finished the postings for the other news in following threads:

The Surprising Package

Officially Invitation from HiG to the "Hobby and Spiel" in Leipzig

(now the members from Asia have all the information that I have posted at CarcF.)

Scott,

Thanks for all the hard work getting the forum back up. We all really appreciate it.

Thank you to Gantry and Scott for all the hard work getting us back together on Carcassonne Central!

Thank you to Carcassonne-Forum for giving us a place to continue with updates and communication!!

Gantry, thank you that you bring us back all the pictures.

Now, my postings are looking good again...

We've learned our lesson, not just one set of backups but many

I had just forgotten to restore the images folder, but all should be good now. As Scott mentioned, not only has our server been upgraded (fast SSDs) but I'm creating a separate test site so Scott can test out new modifications to the forum before making them go live (yes we should have been doing this all along).

Gantry, did you read all the information at CarcF?

gantry · « **Reply #40 on:** June 27, 2013, 11:15:38 AM »

Yes I read some about some of the latest issues with a certain person

kettlefish · « **Reply #41 on:** June 27, 2013, 11:36:23 AM »

Sorry gantry...

We have at CarcF a hidden forum for the admins and the global moderators from CarcC.

BT · « **Reply #42 on:** June 28, 2013, 03:13:24 AM »

gantry,

Thanks for all your hard work too!

kettlefish · « **Reply #43 on:** June 30, 2013, 10:52:31 PM »

What I'm still missing is in the headline the menue "Stafflist".
There were not only the admins and global moderators, there you could see also all our authors...
